    Resumé

    The Tude Å valley is part of a glacial melt water complex formed in the last part of the Weichselian during the retreat of the Belt glacier. The area was in Preboreal times situated above sea level as shown by fresh water deposits. The lower part of the Tude Å valley was 5240 ± 100 B.C. in the Early Atlantic transgressed by the Littorina sea at 9 m below present sea level and existed as a fiord up to the Subatlantic. The marine deposits are characterized by the occurrence of juvenile Ostrea edulis during the main part of this period. The open fiord conditions were subsequently changed by the building up of beach ridges in the mouth of the river Tude Å and by dam building in the lower part of the river valley in the Iron Age.
